he got this one correct. The real problem with the ACA is it is a hyperpartisian bill rammed down America's throat by the left. They made not bones they were doing it w/o the GOP and the GOP rightly bitched. The right had no input so why the shock they when they get in power they are going to try to repeal it? But we all know the Einstein's definition of insanity (doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results) except for congress. Now the GOP wants to RAM their stuff thru without any democratic input or support. Well, if successful, guess what happens when the democrats get control? Who would be shocked if they repealed and replaced the repeal and replace? Not me. So why not do something together that BOTH sides can live with. Of course Schumer is for his (if you believe the lying bastard)...... but there should be some reasonable moderate democrats that can get behind something that isn't either far left or far right. Even the democrats know that the ACA is destined to fail, although some want that so they can go to single payer. There are literally hundreds of other acceptable options which keep insurance in the hands of the individual and are reasonable and moderate. Instead the right feels they have to repeal the ACA (IMO in part because its called OBAMA-care, and we don't want anything "OBAMA") but then fixing a 1000 plus page monstorsity might be far more difficult that ripping it up and starting from scratch. Take what is good about the ACA like portability, pre-existing conditions, etc and get rid of the bad like all the requirments like forced birth control coverage, prenatal care, pediatric dentistry.... and regulations that are causing increased premiums. Instead republicans can't find their asses with both hands and a road map while democrats rejoice over the prolonging of this pile of #### that came out of their asses and is costing hard working families thousands of dollars a year.
And they wonder why people hate congress.
